Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act Statistics

The Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA), signed into law on December 23, 2021 and implemented on June 21, 2022, establishes a rebuttable presumption that all goods, wares, articles, and merchandise mined, produced, or manufactured, wholly or in part, in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR) of the People's Republic of China, or by an entity on the UFLPA Entity List, are made with forced labor and are prohibited under 19 U.S.C. § 1307 to enter into the United States.

2026 Update

Based on feedback from stakeholders, CBP updated this UFLPA Enforcement Statistics Dashboard (Dashboard) to incorporate revised definitions, new data elements, and enhanced features to provide greater transparency for stakeholders. This new update includes the ability to select data to reflect shipment count or shipment value, identifies commodities at the Harmonized Tariff Schedule 4-digit level (HTS-4), view all countries-of-origin instead of only the top five countries-of-origin, and clarifies the definition of a “shipment”.

In the previous Dashboard, a shipment is defined as an aggregate of the totality of goods subjected to UFLPA enforcement actions on one CBP cargo release entry. When a CBP cargo release entry is not present or required on an import transaction, a shipment is the totality of goods on one bill (i.e. bill of lading or airway bill). In the previous version, for example, one shipment or entry may have been filed with five “lines” or “import transactions” of different types of commodities (e.g. cotton t-shirt, cotton dress, cotton pants, polyester vest, and a man-made fiber jacket) from multiple countries (e.g. China, Malaysia, and Vietnam) and only three of those items (i.e. cotton t-shirt, cotton dress, and cotton pants) were subject to UFLPA enforcement actions. The previous version counted this example as one shipment subjected to UFLPA enforcement action. Read More→
